Usually, brother printer stop printing black ink when there is no ink. but in your case, It seems like this is a print head issue. So you need to clean up the printer head. after that, you may try to print something again it will start working fine. 

  • Open brother printer utility tool. 
  • Go to printing printing preferences. 
  • Click on the maintenance. 
  • Select Printhead clean up option. 
  • Now click on the Clean up. 

Once your print head will be cleaned, you may try to print something again. it should be printing the documents now.

I had a similar issue with my brother machine about 2 months ago. It was due to the ink cartridge problem. The nozzle were clogged due to the dried ink. that's why it was not printing black.

So I would suggest you, first you should clean the print nozzle. it that's doesn't work you should replace the ink cartridge on your machine.
